Face Reading Skills of China

A person who calls himself a physiognomic person looks at your face and observes it. Taking their time to examine your face, they predict your habits and incidents in life accurately. You might find yourself bewildered, wondering how he found it out.You may think it is a ploy but actually, this science of finding a person’s character through reading their face (called as Siang Mien in Chinese) existed 3000 years ago, in China. However, nowadays, face reading is generally taken along with astrology due to relations with zodiac signs. During the 20th century, quite a few people were fascinated by how a face could talk about a person and wrote books about it.

The face is like a window to the emotions of the person. Each part of the face moves in a unique way depicting different feelings. It is a fact that the human face can convey messages more complex than animal faces.

The Chinese believed that the universe and all the heavenly bodies were made of five elements: fire, water, earth, wood and metal. They also thought that man’s fate was a combination of these elements. They strongly felt that each element has a face of its own.

Each part of the face tells you a lot about the person’s character (like his/her past, present and future.)

Here are a few features of some of the parts of the face. See if you have one of them:

1.      A person with a straight nose would be a very disciplined person. An artist or a person who appreciates beauty would have a ball-like tip in his nose.

2.      Do you want a person who will get you far? Try the ones with straight eye brows. These people have a lot of ideas

3.      People with dimples (cheeks) are supposed to be attractive. Also, these people are very congenial (agree with other’s tastes, hence mingle well).

4.      All employers (teachers too for admission), remember: the eyes never lie. Look for people with prominent, sparkling eyes. For a partner (in business),look for eyes that sit firmly while gazing steadily. This person would be a very stable person with persevering nature.

5.      People with small ears, although insecure, know what they want and are hard-working.

6.      A preferred jaw would be a square one. They (the people) can turn their dreams to reality.

7.      People with a wide forehead are clever and practical.

There are many more than this. To give you an example, the Chinese classify noses into 24 types! (I gave 2). It would take a long time for you to master face reading! Face reading can be applied in many jobs, mainly in counselling and selecting. It may also help you in giving an apt description for your character in a story.

So the next time you come across a face reader, don’t be too surprised!
